If there was one style of dress that ruled the summer, it was the maxi — everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Reese Witherspoon wore the comfy and flattering trend.
And it doesn’t look like the silhouette is being left behind anytime soon, because Emily Ratajkowski just showed us how to winterize the style. While out in New York City, the model wore sleek black boots, a chain crossbody bag, and a gray maxi tank dress in a knitted fabric that’s perfect for cooler seasons.
Of all of the maxi styles, tank dresses were a favorite among celebrities like Taylor Swift and Mindy Kaling this summer, thanks to their comfy feel and effortlessly stylish look. Add knitted fabric to the mix, like Ratajkowski’s recent look, and the dress is ready for fall.
If you’re looking for a new everyday dress you can layer under cardigans or wear on warm fall days, lightweight, knit maxi dresses are it. Read on for lookalikes you can shop for as little as $23.
